The carpenters came back on Monday & got right to work. They put up the trusses & half the sub-roof. They also installed the flashing where the old roof joins the new shop. Hopefully no more leaking.
The new entry doors for the shop arrived too. Nice looking doors. They’re insulated steel doors with the upper portion being thermal pane glass. They will be installed to open outward & appear to be sealed against the weather OK.

You will be making saw dust before you know it. There is a small set back in my shop project. I fractured a bone in my ankle and am wearing a walking cast now! Happy to see your shop is coming along so nicely.
God Bless

Thank you for keeping us up to date on the progress. IT is very cool to watch shops come together. You get to feeling like you are part of it even though you only get to see the pics.
Thanks.

Tom, Sorry to hear about your ankle… I suggest using the ankle as an excuse to get yourself come hand-carving tools. Get Well Soon!
I’m happy to see things moving too. The wife sez my attitude has improved since things started moving… She Noticed!
